Panel Discussion on “Hate Speech and Incitement to Genocide”

A panel discussion on the subject “Hate Speech and Incitement to Genocide” was held at UN Headquarters in New York. The event was organized by the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum; the UN Office on Genocide Prevention and the Responsibility to Protect; the Office of the UN Special Rapporteur on the Promotion and Protection of the Right to Freedom of Opinion and Expression; and the Permanent Mission of Norway to the UN.

Among the panellists was George Weiss (pictured), Founder of Radio La Benevolencija Humanitarian Tools Foundation (La Benevolencija), a Dutch NGO that uses edutainment and psycho-education to combat hate speech and empower victims in Rwanda, Burundi and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
